Nikon NIKKOR Z MC 105mm f/2.8 VR S

The Nikon NIKKOR Z MC 105mm f/2.8 VR S is an S-Line macro lens for FX-format Nikon Z mirrorless cameras. It reproduces subjects life-size at 1:1 from 0.29 m, optical VR rated at 4.5 stops helps with handheld shooting, and the 105 mm focal length works well for portraits too. The barrel is dust- and drip-resistant and the front element has a fluorine coat.

This sharp, stable S-Line macro lens with an f/2.8 maximum aperture and 105 mm focal length excels at life-size images. It offers dependable focusing, beautiful rendering of out-of-focus areas and a steady image when shooting handheld. With its 1:1 reproduction ratio, it is an ideal tool for photographers whose work centres on faithful rendering of small subjects.

Sharp from macro to infinity

The large diameter of the Nikon Z mount has enabled a dramatic increase in optical performance over the previous F-mount model. One aspherical element, three ED glass elements and a multi-focusing system thoroughly suppress chromatic aberration, so high resolution at close and far distances comes with beautiful bokeh free of colour fringing.

Not just for macro

The 105 mm focal length and high resolution pay off in landscapes and portraits too. Optical vibration reduction (VR) rated at 4.5 stops keeps the image steady when shooting handheld, and Nano Crystal Coat and ARNEO Coat suppress ghost and flare.

Fast, precise focusing

A stepping motor (STM) with a multi-focusing system focuses very quickly and accurately. The focus range limiter shortens focusing time in close-up shooting, and improved manual focus operation lets you focus exactly as intended. The electromagnetic diaphragm controls exposure with high precision.

Resistant and lighter

The barrel is designed with dust and drip resistance in mind, and the fluorine-coated front element repels dirt. The lens is about 16% lighter than the previous F-mount model. In video, brightness changes smoothly, and the control ring can be assigned to aperture or exposure compensation.
